Chiroptical techniques

A last example of a dopant whose chirality has been investigated by the LC technique is represented by helicenes and related molecules. Once again, compounds very different spectroscopically, such as 46-49, and hence hardly comparable with chiroptical techniques, are very similar in shape and give helical twisting powers of the same sign and of comparable intensity80 the twisting powers of helicenes have been successfully calculated by the shape model of Ferrarini et al.73... [Pg.451]

Polarimetry, circular dichroism (CD) and optical rotatory dispersion (ORD) are the most important tools for the study of properties arising from optical activity. Although many chiral thiophenes have been prepared, there is no secure basis for a systematic discussion of the special effects of thiophene or annelated thiophene rings. For the purpose now at hand it is more expedient to discuss three different areas in which thiophene containing molecules and the related chiroptical techniques are central features. [Pg.736]

The interaction of polarized light with chiral compounds is of great interest since chiroptical techniques are extremely useful as methods of characterization. It is equally true that although most scientists are aware that enantiomerically rich solutions will rotate the plane of linearly polarized light, the origins of this effect are not as simple as might be imagined. In this first article, the phenomena of polarimetry and optical rotatory dispersion will be discussed. A subsequent note will concern the related phenomenon of circular dichroism. [Pg.1]

With this possibility in mind, the technique of stopped-flow has been combined with CD detection. The stopped-flow technique allows precisely defined quantities of reactants to be rapidly mixed and the reaction initiated within a well defined time interval. CD, as a chiroptical technique, would then allow one to glean information as to the conformational... [Pg.31]

The fact that CPL and FDCD instruments are not commercially available, and, therefore must be constructed in individual research laboratories, has certainly affected the quantity of applications of these chiroptical techniques. Nevertheless, both have been shown to provide interesting, important, and often unique information concerning the structure and dynamics of optically active molecules. As needs develop for more selective and sensitive detection or imaging of chiral molecules or chiral molecular systems, the range of applications of CPL and FDCD will certainly increase, and these spectroscopic techniques should become even more important tools of molecular stereochemistry. [Pg.237]

The fundamental requirement for the existence of molecular dissymmetry is that the molecule cannot possess any improper axes of rofation, the minimal interpretation of which implies additional interaction with light whose electric vectors are circularly polarized. This property manifests itself in an apparent rotation of the plane of linearly polarized light (polarimetry and optical rotatory dispersion) [1-5], or in a preferential absorption of either left- or right-circularly polarized light (circular dichroism) that can be observed in spectroscopy associated with either transitions among electronic [3-7] or vibrational states [6-8]. Optical activity has also been studied in the excited state of chiral compounds [9,10]. An overview of the instrumentation associated with these various chiroptical techniques is available [11]. [Pg.332]

Since both reactants, the Co(III) and the Co(II) complex, have the same donor set of ligands, we are dealing with the paradigmic case of a reaction without a chemical change. Experimental studies of such selfexchange reactions must employ suitable isotopic labels at the metal center (194) or within the the ligand molecule (193), or must monitor the reduction process with a chiroptical technique (166). [Pg.173]

The word chiroptical is descriptive of the techniques that use optical detection devices that are selective toward optically active (chiral) materials and/or molecules. They are used for structural investigation and analytical determination. There are three chiroptical techniques ... [Pg.445]

Fluorescence-detected circular dichroism (FDCD) is a chiroptical technique in which the spectrum is obtained by measuring the difference in total luminescence obtained after the sample is excited by left- and right-circularly polarized light. For the FDCD spectrum of a given molecular species to match its CD spectrum, the luminescence excitation spectrum must be identical to the absorption spectrum. [Pg.1074]

Chiral lanthanide n.m.r. shift reagents have been used to determine the enantiomeric composition of samples of salsolidine, tetrahydropalmatine, N-methylpavine, and laudanosine. The study of various types of isoquinoline alkaloid is included in a review of applications of chiroptical techniques. ... [Pg.93]

A full report of the c.d. of steroidal diol bis-(p-dimethylaminobenzoates) confirms the reliability of theoretical calculations of the coupled Cotton effects of the remote ester groups (exciton chirality method). The c.d. curves show two maxima of opposite signs, separated by some 27 nm, and with intensity inversely proportional to the square of the interchromophore distance. The profile of the observed c.d. curve results from the superimposition of two component curves, each of asymmetric shape.A review of the uses of chiroptical techniques for structural and conformational studies includes examples of the assignment of stereochemistry to steroids and terpenoids, among a wide variety of natural products. The Octant Rule for carbonyl compounds and the rules applicable to other chromophoric systems are discussed critically. [Pg.233]

The most usual way in which such interaction is monitored is by the rotation of plane polarised light as it traverses a solution. In order to understand the language in which the other chiroptical techniques are described, it is useful to consider the general mechanism of the rotation of plane polarised light. [Pg.189]

In this chapter, we have attempted to assess the usefulness of chiroptical techniques for determining the absolute configuration of amino acids and small peptides, either directly or via their chromophoric derivatives. Several empirical and semiempirical rules have been described. The importance of conformational equilibria has been stressed repeatedly, and solvent effects have been discussed. It should be emphasized once again that the widest possible variety of standards should be studied when an absolute configuration is to be assigned to an unknown on the basis of empirical chiroptical rules. [Pg.173]

Both the pitch and handedness of the cholesteric helices can be detected by chiroptical techniques, optical rotatory dispersion (O.R.D.) and circular dichroism (C.D.), by characterizing the selective reflection band. A right-handed helix (P-helix) originates a negative reflection Cotton-effect and vice versa (A = np where is the wavelength of the reflection band, n the main refractive index and p the pitch). [Pg.301]

The relatively new chiroptical technique, vibrational circular dichroism spectroscopy, is coming of age. Instrumentation and theoretical models are sufficiently good to establish VCD as the only spectroscopic method for the determination of absolute configurations of molecules in solution and potentially in the gas phase. [Pg.294]

A substantial improvement in analysis of macromolecular conformation in solution by chiroptical techniques, in particular CD, has been achieved by studying copolymers of optically active "transparent" monomers with comonomers containing an aromatic chromophore, which acts as spectroscopic probe. ... [Pg.361]

From the examples discussed in this chapter it results clearly that chiroptical techniques supply a powerfull method for investigating the molecular conformation of macromolecules in solution. The evident limitation of the method is that optically active polymers only display chiroptical properties. While this occurs in the most naturally occurring polymers, it is not true for the most common stereoregular synthetic polymers. In these last the asymmetric carbon atomsliave either one or the other absolute configuration with the same probability and inter-and intra-molecular compensations cancel any optical rotation. [Pg.366]

Various techniques which are suitable for the determination of equilibrium constants in noncovalent interactions [207, 217, 218] may also be applied to chiral CE-related studies. The applications of fluorescence [219] and circular dichroism spectrometry [220] have been reported. The advantage of the latter is that it is a chiroptical technique. The apphcations of other techniques, such as microcalorimetry or electron-spin resonance, although it may be very useful, have not yet been reported in the studies related to chiral CE. [Pg.129]

The theoretical foundation for all chiroptical techniques lies in the Rosenfeld equation (2) which expresses the rotatory strength of a transition, assumed to be between states 0 and n, as the imaginary part of the scalar product of the electric dipole and magnetic dipole transition moments for the transition. [Pg.374]
